Recently changed back to a standard CD player giving me bugger all radio reception. Read about the aerial base giving problems so I just replaced that today and it hasn't made a difference. Could it be the aerial itself?

Currently fully refurbishing a used set of front calipers and carriers I bought on ebay, a full bead blast, prime and paint affair and just curious as to how much I'd likely get for them? I'll be fitting these ones to my Trophy and wondering if it'd be worth it financially to then do them too...

My initial thoughts would be a caliper (assuming front right?) although it's a bit odd. When braking as hard as possible it's more or less negligible, it's more for the moderate to fairly hard braking braking that it does it. It starts off worse if the brakes haven't been 'exercised' for a...

The reason I'm asking is my Trophy is on cup springs and dampers at the minute (front) because one of the sachs dampers was leaking slightly and needs a refurb. They were previously done in 2013 by Cornering Force. Now I didn't notice an issue in driving the car hard while on the sachs dampers...

Front sachs are needing to come off for a refurb and I have cup parts ready to swap on. My question is should I swap out the rear ones as well to match or is it fine to just put the front cup ones on and leave the original rears in place? I'll still be properly driving the car in this time and...

Long story short, I have a rusty rear wing in my Boxster and once the rust is removed I don't want it to come back. Are there any recommended body shops around this area preferably (but will travel a bit for the right person in Scotland) that are willing and able to properly cut the rusty...

Most notable at lower speeds and in 2nd/3rd, don't have to accelerate hard, just slightly and when I come off the pedal there's a very slight delay (<1s) then a light knock that appears to be from the front right. Engine mounts and gearbox mounts are all pretty new.

How on earth are these meant to fit with the bend in the wiper arm getting in the way? I bought these as they're listed for the car but I swear something is going to break before the thing mounts.

What's the latest on the best place to source OEM discs? These discs and pads for under £100- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281077355493?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Seems pretty good to me but I'm sure I've seen folk in the past quoting really cheap costs for these...

Still having bother with my gearshift despite removing the Yanoo lever (3rd to 4th feels crap and inconsistent) and I'm not sure if the linkage is standard or not. The garage seemed to say everything was fine but there is still something not right. Looking to compare it with a 100% standard one...

So I can call up the symbols on the dash when I press the switch but can't actually activate either of them. I've had the car since October 2014 and it's never worked in my ownership, just getting round to it now. I've had it in at the garage and the mechanic was thinking either the clutch...

I've seen the throttle body mentioned from what google has shown me? Symptoms- Stopped at some traffic lights then when I pulled away the EML (the one on the far right of the dash) started flashing, accelerating hard through second it kept doing it for a few seconds then stopped and...

Doesn't look like any of the usual suspects I've searched for. Looking to revert back to standard but not a clue what I need and can't find anything on the original parts.

I've been wondering if it makes more sense to buy a regular 182 and tweak the set-up with a good set of coilovers rather than put a lot of miles on something as rare as the Trophy, whilst freeing up an extra ~£2k in the process. Has anyone sampled a tweaked 182 in direct comparison? My Trophy...

I've always meant to ask this, never been able to find it in the manual. There's a symbol in the OBC that has a marker.......then the symbol of a car with the letter 'g' above it. What on earth does it mean? It's always in single digits.

and why is mine loose?

Noticed this a bit more recently, it's only needed a second attempt to start the once so far but not sure how long that will last. Seems to only be when the car is cold that there's a notable delay from turning the key to the engine firing. It turns over fine but just takes that second or two...

Just noticed this tapping/ticking sound recently and as far as I can tell it's only when the car's up to temperature. I had the cambelt, aux. belt, dephaser and water pump changed in the last 300 miles or so at SWR in Stirling. I'll try and get a recording but for the time being- Hard to...

Just started to notice this more recently. It's not really apparent at speed, only occasionally showing itself but at low speed going over speed bumps and the like there's an obvious creak/crash from the front left of the car. It's definitely the left as I've made sure to go over speed bumps...

Does anyone have a guide for this? I don't want to force anything and end up breaking something. Mine has peeled badly and I'm looking to replace it with this-...

I've just bought a Clio Trophy and on the drive back yesterday I noticed the change from 3rd to 4th occasionally has a bit of a sound, not sure if I'd call it a crunch as such but it is noticeable. Only seems to happen when changing gear quickly (as far as I can tell so far) and even then not...
